- Imagine you could write all your business classes in PLAIN JAVA.- Imagine you could have them transparently persisted without the need for pre or post- processing, weird proprietary VMs, base-class inheritance, code hooks or clumsy interface implementation.- Imagine you could forget all that EJB, JDBC and database configuration hassle.- Imagine you could get transparent fault-tolerance and load-balancing as a bonus.- Imagine you could have all this running orders of magnitude FASTER than traditional DBMS systems.- Imagine all that could be done using a very simple open-source library.
